does yr wife like Kristen Bell? I thought You Again was both funny and really strange.

Thanks for the suggestions! Is Owen Wilson overly Owen Wilson-y in Midnight in Paris? Does that even make sense?

Owen Wilson is more Woody Allen-y, but since that's who directed it, it makes perfect sense. It's a good movie though. It's got humor, and romance and time travel and I didn't find it depressing in the slightest. The others listed are great too, but the Help, while excellent and humorous, does have some sad/downer moments, so if she wants something more light-hearted you might want to skip that one for now.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes

I loved this move so much, I had so much hesitation going to see, but I enjoyed every minute of it. Can't wait to see a sequel.

I have a real soft spot for this film as it was one of my favorites when I was in Middle School. I haven't seen the new Russel Crowe remake, but Prince of Thieves is second only to the Errol Flynn classic for me. It has a great cast, is well directed, has a memorable score, and really witty dialogue.
